te^; 155S; BY J. M, filst^er Z<^ Go, L, . GRAHAM & SON, PRINTERS, W and loi Gravier Street, NEW ORLEANS. PRKKiS^CK. IT has been the aim of the author, in compiling and editing The Indus-tries of New Orleans, to present the public with a concise and accurateJ work on the many natural and artificial advantages of the city, and inci-dentally of the State, relative to trade, commerce, manufactures; to notethe cardinal causes which have combined to produce these results, and tocall attention to present conditions and future probabilities. Except in theselection of the historical data, and the commercial, manufacturing andfinancial statistics which it contains, but little originality is claimed for thebook, space having permitted the author to treat only of the salient featuresof the situation. Relying upon these merits and the sound judgment of the public for suc-cess, the work is committed to the press with these few words of explanation, ANDREW MORRISON. New Oileans^Jaimary^i88§.
